Editorial report
Xiaomi Redmi 12C technical sheet
The Xiaomi Redmi 12C suits buyers looking for a basic Android phone with a large display, provided they can accept performance below that of most phones of its time and slow charging. Its overall NeoScore is 4.2, and overall it ranks worse than most phones launched around the same time.
The IPS LCD display measures 6.71 inches, but its 60 Hz refresh rate is among the weakest of its time. Its 268 ppi pixel density and 500-nit peak brightness are also lower than those of most contemporaries. The AnTuTu result of 225,154 is below that of most phones launched around the same time. The battery has a typical capacity of 5,000 mAh, while 10 W charging is slower than on most phones of its time.
The main camera offers 50 MP resolution, typical for the period, but its 1/2.76″ sensor is smaller than those in most phones of its time, and there is no optical image stabilization. Video recording reaches 1080p at 30 fps. This version pairs 3 GB of RAM with 64 GB of storage, which is expandable; the Redmi 12C is sold in configurations from 3 GB / 32 GB to 8 GB / 256 GB. It includes Android 12, dual Nano-SIM, NFC, and a 3.5 mm audio jack. Overall, it is a basic choice for buyers who want a large screen and can live with its limitations in performance, display, camera, and charging.
